Flights and Day one in OZ

Heya people, flight was alrite, not a fan of prop planes thou, coming into mildura was a lickle bit hairy, plane got shook around like mad. Man 24 hours in a plane is a damn long time, glad thats over. First day in Oz has been great, dont wana leave. Walked down to the murray river around 6.45ish and it was beautiful, kookaburra's singing in the back ground. as i sat there i can only imagine that im guna fall in love with this country and with katrina more and more..... it has really been like just coming home, her parents are amazing, dog is lovely, and i cant stop smiling... guess thats good :-D
have arrived at the conclusion that british opinion of australia is completely wrong, as we flew over melbourne  i expected it to be quite barren and brown but all i could see out of the plane was green fields, as we approached mildura it was also very green misconceptions all round by us british i think. I cant wait for 2moro, brenton (katrina's dad) and alison (katrina's mum) cooked a pork joint for us on a webber which is like a round bbq with a lid but without coals all around the food only to the sides.... man it was good.
2moro am going into the town of mildura to sort out my bank and katrina's work etc should be fun... i really cant wait.
will add again soon.
much love to all my family and friends. Xx

  3. Glad you're happy. The roasted pork sounds like the fattened calf to welcome the wandering Katrina home. Everything will be fine as long as there are no ASHES with the webber - the Aussies have a real thing about the ASHES!! Make the most of it and keep smiling.
